if my tire width is 2.1" then how wide should my bike tubes be?
20282
Each tube has a minimum/maximum tire size. click select to see the different options. a 2.1 tire would be just under the max width of 2.2 which means the tube will expand almost fully before filling the cavity

Most tubes give a min max tire size. A 2.0 to a 2.25 would work fine for a 2.1 tire.

The tube should list the size range that it supports. The range should cover the size of your tire. So Presta, 26" X 1.75"/2.2" would fit 26" tires from 1.75 to 2.2 and would fit your tire. I love my Serfas tubes. They seem to hold air better than most, therefore I don't have to pump them up as often.

yes 24mm is the width. according to http://sheldonbrown.com/tire-sizing.html, you'd probably want a 44 to 54 tire. this would be more like a hybrid than a road bike tire.

you need to go to www.planetbike and look at their size chart. You can also call them and they will be glad to help. They go by size and tire width.

Hello, Yes your tire size is the right size. However if your bike does not have a quick release rear tire it will not fit the trainer. Thank you.

You can use a tire from 1.75 to 2.25 inches wide. I didn't measure the width as it is installed.

Those numbers are dimensions, 54-622 is 54mm wide (inflated) and 622mm bead diameter. The inflated width can vary based on rim width and tire pressure, and can be inconsistent from one manufacturer to another. Theoretically it will be 1mm wider than your current tire. So look at your fork clearance and frame clearance at the chainstays and seatstays. If the current tire is almost rubbing, you may have problems. If there's room for a wider tire, it will fit.

When you say tube, the tube size depends on the tire size. So, a 700x23 tire would take what you seem to be saying is a 20-25 tube. A 700x25 tire would require, obviously, the larger size tube. Having ridden both, my preference is definitely the "skinnier" tire--700x23. Might give up a little in comfort, but you will gain less rolling resistance.

Hello there... Your current tires are 26" diameter and will fit wheels between 1.5 - 1.75" wide. The Schwinn tires are 26" diameter and 1.95" wide and should fit your current wheel.I hope this helps!

You don't want to put more liner in than you need. 29 inches of liner in a 26 inch tire. Nor do you want too skinny liner if your tires are fat, or too wide liner if your tires are skinny. Your tire should have a size written on the side. Get liners that have a range that includes your tire size. 700 is a road biking tire size. it is however identical in diameter to a 29 inch tire...622mm in diameter. the 700 are generally more narrow for skinny road biking rims. You probably want blue for very skinny 26 inch tires, Silver is for "regular" or "normal" width 26 inch tires, and brown is for the wider 26 inch tires. I have a mountain bike with very wide tires and run the brown. You don't want to put more liner in than you need. 29 inches of liner in a 26 inch tire.

The age and gear set up of your bike has nothing to do with tire size. You need to measure the rim or existing tire to know if it'll fit.

I am using Schwalbe 27x1 1/4 tires. It is perfect for the application I use my bike.

I cant answer for sure because my son's bike has 1.5 inch tires. However it appears to be big enough to go around 2.25 tires if you have a cable release it will help on install. Otherwise you may have to release the cable to get the caliper around the tire.

Even though the tube is thicker than others, I seriously doubt it will stretch another inch & 1/2 to your 27.5 (27 & 1/2"). They make them to fit the size of your tire, and stretching the tube might cause a tear or weaken the tube to split or pop, causing unwanted behavior in performance as well as injury, due to collapsing of the tire due to no even conformity left in the tube to hold up the tire. So to answer your question I don't recommend using a size that is different than needed for your bike tire. :)

I'm Unaware of the size (26" x 1095). I assume you mean 26" x 1.95. My tires are indeed this size in which case this is the proper size tube for the tire. If you are not sure, Simply look at the "Side wall" of the tire. It should indicate the size of the tire. (In some cases the sidewall is scuffed or "Dry-Rotted" to the degree that you just can't read it). Once you can read/obtain the size of tire. You order the tube of that size. Most tubes cover a small range of tires. For example; If you have a 26" x 1.95 tire, some tubes will accommodate tire size(s) 26"x 1.85 up to 26" x 2.125. The same tube is capable of expanding to 3/4 of an inch in width. Find your tire size, diameter is the 26" and the width is the 1.95. The best way I found is typing in the tire size and searching tube. Most of Schwinn comfort bikes/trikes I've seen have 26" x 1.95 all the way up to 26" x 2.125 tires on them. This Sun lite tube in particular indeed fits my 26" x 1.95 application.

My thoughts are that some forks are built narrow and wide so the tire can be inflated to both widths. 1.75w or 2.125 w

I myself would consider it a rear tire but be advised, if you're looking for a 2.1 width tire DON'T look here! even though they specify 2.1 it's really a 1.95 at best. I was very disappointed due to this and some Kenda "engineer" that I spoke to told me that's how real 2.1 tires are made, not the answer I was looking for. Good luck.
